Maybe she needs therapy (and no I'm not defending Rowling, she is trash)
Edit: downvoting therapy, upvoting violence. You people would make your parents proud.
I hate to be honest but JKR’s words turn into literal violence for trans people soooo congrats on how high your horse is
Quite ironic way to end a "I'm more woke than thou" comment
Okay!
That totally that
You have no idea what I meant or what I believe and I have zero desire to explain anything to you since you assumed a bunch bullshit. Bye, jerk.
Ignorant AND trite! Shocking!
Anything to have an enemy. No one gives a shit
You're saying wizard nerds who are fans of JKR... became violent toward trans people? Wat.
Incorrect. Nice try
Yes, because she has. Maybe not with the haryy Potter books, but with her posts certainly.
Just because she failed doesn't mean she wasn't doing it.
It's amazing that at the slightest disagreement, hell in this case, even questioning something, someone has to be a troll.
Maybe, but I doubt it would really do anything for her. She's actually not a bad person, but her upbringing means she's not the least bit concerned about going to jail after whipping a bad person's ass.
Yeah I am not saying anger issues make someone "bad" I'm just suggesting they can be dealt with better ways than brutalizing another humam
Rights have never been gained through peaceful protest. There has always had to be enough blood spilled to scare the ever living shit out of those in power for us to gain anything at all.
🆗
You tell 'em, best friend.
which us is your current us ?

If it's a fucking bigot, who cares?
There is a reason that millennia of philosophers have been against violence. Same reason people oppose the death penalty. Boils mostly down to: "what if you're wrong?"
You dont respect my existence, you can expect my resistance.
